DK Serves Up A Diverse Sampling for the Webbys
After a couple hardcore months of production, Digital Kitchen has just delivered a hefty and diverse package of content for this year’s Webby Awards Gala (June 9-10 in NYC). Presented on a 28×15 ft screen, these 27 films cover a wide range of styles from Live-Action, Animation, Information Graphics and a lot in-between.
As the Webby Awards’ Officical Film Production Partner, they spent April and May producing these pieces. They opened up the project to all of their studios (New York, LA, Seattle and Chicago) as well as many of their regular, talented collaborators. They also starred in many of them.
My personal favorites are the Gala Open (Directors Cut), directed by Rob Chiu, the Film and Video Open, directed by Bryce Wymer and Comedy Long Form, but I think there’s something in there satisfy anyone’s sensibilities.
